accomplished about what set out to, the

efforts toward securing a candidate, or

would not hesitate to accept it, as the
future promises as well here as anywhere
I know of just at the present time of

we have gone from about thirty at first to
perhaps one hundred and fifty in point Of

CALIFORNIA; Pasadena The new
Sunday school in Pasadena held Patri-
otto Service, July 8, the Sunday before
the Fourth. The children took the prin-
cipal parts in the singing and the ad-
dresses; all Of which were very appropri-
ate to the day and full of love for coun-
try to the young. Mr.. E. e. Spaulding,
Assistant Superintendent, directed the
singing with excellent effect Mr.. A. @.
Fish, Superintendent, made a short ad.
dress, giving personal "reminiscences of
army life and devotion to country that
touched all hearts. The pastor added
few words, referring to the rapid growth
OF the school and parish, and the strong
friendships which had sprung up between
pastor and people during the short three
months they had worked together.
The church was crowded to it's utmost,
and deep and reverent spirit pervaded
all present. It was the last service for
three months, the pastor being granted
vacation to return to Illinois and remove
his family to his new field of labor. The
architects are busy on the plans for the
new church, and the work will be pushed
to an early completion. a
Rev. E. L. Conger's address on the
laying of the corner stone of the Public Lii
brary, is published in the Pasadena Union
of July 7. We give some extracts this
week on our first page. The address gave
our friends an opportunity to command
the attention OF the public in way not
offered by the regular Sunday services,
and the people we're more than pleased
with the result. The President of the Lii
brary Association, who is not Universal
list, but who gives us 800 for the new
church, says in letter to Br. Conger: "By
universal consent your address was by far
the ablest Of all. We are greatly your
debtor for it," The Pasadena Star, also
has very complimentary notice. The
new parish is greatly benefited by it and
is much the gamer thereby.
A correspondent adds Of the new move
ment: "We have many new friends who
have never worked with Universalists be-
fore, and others who are coming as they
learn who and what we are. They are
sick of the old theology, and are glad to
find hearted, reasonable faith and
church, that keeps them from skepticism
and gives them and their children a home
where they can work for and enjoy reli-
gion and life"

The Inner Life" is peryaded, from begin
ming to end, with the high devotional spirit of
the Christian believer. The several chapters

to holy living and are glowing with the ardor
of Christian faith. The prayer and expert

O0nventl0n In FAVOR OF permanent place
of meeting, it is not likely that the advo-
Gates OF that theory will press the sub
| ject any more. Hence the necessity OF
the churches taking definite action. Two
out of the last three meetings have been
held at places seeking the permanent To-
cation OF the Convention with them. But
this source is exhausted, and it is essen
tial that the advocates of the itineracy of
the Convention should "prove their faith
by their works." and forward their invita-
tions in time to be considered at the next
meeting of the committee, which will be
held perhaps, during the autumn or early
winter.
There are many persons throughout
the State holding Missionary Boxes, who
have not reported for some time. Friends,

money in them, send it to the Secretary

Since the resignation of Rev. ]. D..
Lauer, as pastor of our church in Gale
donna, the pulpit has been vacant, until
quite recently. Rev. F. T. Lathe is now
there, and we would be pleased to record
his permanent engagement and to know
that Caledonia will be taken from the
long list of pastorless churches in Ohio.
Less than one half the churches in
this State responded to the assessments
made for the general purposes of the Con-
vention. This is not the record we should
make; and we would feel discouraged,
were it not for the fact that both the
number of churches contributing and the
amount received were increased. Some
that promised to contribute are yet to be
heard from. Do not delay any longer.

"A short time ago a young lady living
in the western part of this county, pro-
fessed conversion and united with the
Baptist church. Soon after she began to
doubt the genuineness of her conversion,
and the fear that she might be lost so
worked upon her mind, that she became
insane, and attempted suicide by drown
ing. And yet we have Universalists who
act as if they thought the Universalist
church had no more work to dol
INDIANA.-Lafayette.-A movement
has been inaugurated looking toward

list in faith, has undertaken to revive the
work, having started Sunday-school
which, Sunday, July "a, numbered thir-
ty-nine. Br. Wilgus holds the Sunday
school at 8 P. M, and breaches in the
evening. Br. Drumming, who is ready for
ministerial work, was in Lafayette that
Sunday under some misrepresentation of
the situation. He preached for Br. Wilgus
to a congregation of about sixty, subject
"The Sublime Mission of the Universal
list Church" He thinks with iudicious
and persistent effort by a resident minis
ter the cause can be revived. There is
good church, no debts, but plenty OF
hard work. We trust that Br. Wilgus
undertaken.
